Genecis Bioindustries and Helian Polymers team up on food waste-based PHA

In Canada, Genecis Bioindustries and Helian Polymers announce their collaboration creating PHA based formulations.

Together both companies will develop various resin formulations that include Genecis’ PHAs for high-value applications, such as 3D printing filaments and biomedical applications. By combining both companies’ strengths, converting food waste into biodegradable plastics for Genecis and creating unique PHA based materials from various building blocks for Helian Polymers, the possibilities of unique materials arise. Materials which are not only biobased and biodegradable, but mimic properties of traditional petrochemical plastics, enabling more and sustainable end-of-life options.
